Microsoft has tools to help manage your desktop environments, from on-premises Group Policy, SCCM, and VDI, to cloud-based Windows Intune. Each Microsoft solution fits particular deployment situations. But do Microsoft’s existing desktop deployment abilities provide enough management capability to cope with the evolving future of the Windows desktop?

That’s where PolicyPak Application Manager (PPAM) comes in.

PolicyPak enables the creation, delivery, management, and enforcement of settings for all applications—all while leveraging the existing Microsoft management technologies that Microsoft customers already use.
